The following information is displayed for the axes:
Table 2-4 Diagnostic screen AxisInfo
Function/subfunction Explanation/meaning
Machine axes Name of the axis defined in the NC machine data
Output
Slave/slot Configured assignment
Status Current slot status
Green lamp: Cyclic communication
Red lamp: No cyclic communication (as yet)
Message frame failures The display shows the number of message frame failures since the NC was booted.
This value indicates the quality (fault susceptibility) of the PROFIBUS DP line.
Encoder 1
Slave/slot Configurable assignment
Status Current slot status
Green lamp: Cyclic communication
Red lamp: No cyclic communication (as yet)
Message frame failures The display shows the number of message frame failures since the NC was booted.
This value indicates the quality (fault susceptibility) of the PROFIBUS DP line.
Type Display of encoder type configured in the NC machine data
ABS: Absolute encoder
INC: Incrementalvalue encoder
Encoder 2 (If configured, the same display as for encoder 1)

Log assistance
In event of a fault and when developing OEM applications, control logs may assist with the
analysis.
